Chapter 276 Getting Rid of A Potential Hazard
The timber spirit maniptor wasn''t one to confront the tough with more toughness. He guessed that
Rocky would soon reach his limit and would have to dismiss the Spirit Possession after this attack. He
only needed to withstand it and then Rocky would be powerless tounch another attack. Blocking
Rocky''s current attack was simple for him.
In the twinkling of an eye, Rocky was suddenly standing close to the timber spirit maniptor. He was
gathering all of his spiritual power as this would be thest attack he couldunch. If he failed to take
the timber spirit maniptor down, he wouldn''t have a second chance. Putting all of his strength behind
it, Rocky threw his punch. The intense spiritual power pooled into his fist and it grew. Then it became a
st wave, blinding in light, as though tides were about to surge through the timber spirit maniptor.
The timber spirit maniptor believed that Rocky had exerted all his strength to throw this single
punch. In response, he focused and released the spiritual power of Thunder nature. A thunder shield
materialized in front of him to sh against spiritual power from Rocky.
Two streams of fierce spiritual power intertwined in the sky. There was the intermittent roar of thunder
and the brief sizzling shes of fire. These two streams eliminated each other in the fighting. And at
At the same time, a light shed onto Rocky and the Spirit Possession dissipated. Uriah separated
from Rocky as a beast andnded on the ground. The beast was so exhausted and was barely able to
stay standing. Both Rocky and Uriah werepletely depleted.
After Rocky dissipated the state of Spirit Possession, the timber spirit maniptor snorted. Knowing
that Rocky was now nothing more than a sacrificialmb, he was confident that he had no power to
counterattack.
"Thunder-sharp Fist!" The timber spirit maniptor threw an earth-rattling punch as Rocky stood
unprepared, having just dismissed Spirit Possession. It was so powerful that even the wind caused by
the punch couldcerate one''s skin. The timber spirit maniptor called up hisst reserves of spiritual
power.
Just as the punch was about to make impact on Rocky, a glimmering bead appeared and it flooded
forth into light. A dragon made of tongues of fire was surrounding the bead and absorbed the force
released by the timber spirit maniptor''s punch. The bead rushed to the timber spirit maniptor
rapidly in the next moment.
It was the Dragon me Pearl that Rocky received not long ago. The reason he took out the Heaven
Divine Lotus Seed was to acquire enough spiritual power to steer the Dragon me Pearl. There was
no way that the timber spirit maniptor could know how powerful the Dragon me Pearl was. It
would be toote by the time he was able to take action.
The timber spirit maniptor had depleted all of his spiritual power to fight Rocky. And now, bearing the
force of the Dragon me Pearl''s attack, he was defenseless to parry against it. Without warning,
Dragon me Pearl was in front of him.
Bang!
The Dragon me Pearl became a fireball, glistening like the bloom of fireworks, and immediately
imploded. Instantly, everything within a radius of a dozen meters was enveloped in a ball of me,
including the timber spirit maniptor.
There was a bloodcurdling scream in the air, and as the mes dispersed, the smoke and dust settling,
the timber spirit maniptory scorched and smoldering on the ground. After all the dust settled
down, the scourged and smoking timber spirit maniptor was found. The Dragon me Pearl fell
after him.
Vast relief surging through him, Rocky walked toward the scorched maniptor and turned him over
using his feet. The timber spirit maniptor was still alive, and there was an extraordinary look on his
face: full of fear, shock, and a trance-like stare. He couldn''t understand how he, a timber spirit
maniptor of the Heavenly Stage, could have been defeated by an ordinary spirit maniptor close to
the sixth grade of the Earthly Stage.
"Just so you know, this is not a three star third grade Dark Heaven Insect, but a rare Dark Heaven
Insect Queen. You''re lucky you even saw an insect queen before you die. Rest in peace," Rocky
snorted.
The timber spirit maniptor gurgled in his throat, trying to speak in his rage, but his pupils dted, his
head tilted and in the grip of his fury, he died.
Rocky picked up his Dragon me Pearl off the ground and returned it into his silken pouch along with
Heaven Divine Lotus Seed. He fed Uriah and himself a drop of magical saliva. Finally, he rested and
recovered in situ.
Half an hourter, when Rocky got some strength back, he went back up to Dark Heaven Insect
Queen, and told it, "If you would like to follow me, I''ll make sure to treat you well and take good care of
you."
The insect howled in return, expressing its agreement to the proposal. Rocky nodded, pulled out the
bone arrow from its leg and fed it with a drop of magical saliva.
A few momentster, the insect queen recovered its mobility and was able to take a few steps.
Rocky then buried the body of the timber spirit maniptor. After clearing the battlefield, he
surreptitiously left the woods for the northeast military camp along with Uriah, Rubygon, and the insect
queen.
But far away, maniptors from the Timber Deity Empire, ambushed by a thousand soldiers of northern
sky military camp, were heavily wounded or were killed. Only four maniptors were left. Among them
was one spirit maniptor above the Heavenly Stage. Through his lead, the bncing people broke
through the siege and withdrew to northern sky military camp to join their own armies.
The troops of northern sky military camp added momentum to their victory through a hot pursuit and
went rolling back into northern sky military camp.
The timber deity troops who were attacking northern sky military camp suffered a great loss, after
fighting off numerous feral spirit-manipted beasts. Seeing the troops of northern sky military camp
returning, they had to retreat.
Commander of northern sky military camp felt relieved after the timber deity troops retreated. He
thought of Rocky and felt worried about him. So he sent out his best men to look for him. However, they
returned empty-handed; Rocky had disappeared.
Half dayter, leading a troop of northeast military camp, Marin came in for reinforcements. But once
she reached northern sky military camp, she found that the timber deity troops had been beaten off.
"Commander Sun, I got messages sent by pigeons and they said that the Timber Deity Empire
dispatched powerful troops to attack you by surprise. Among them were three spirit maniptors above
the Heavenly Stage and lots of spirit maniptors of the Earthly Stage. I couldn''t imagine how
managed to defeat them, since you only have two thousands soldiers," Marin told the Commander
doubtfully as she stood in the middle of northern sky military camp. Judging by the chaos that reigned,
she had an idea as to how fierce and violent the attack was.
But the truth was that the pandemonium and substantial damage rued at site were caused by spirit-

manipted beasts attracted by Rocky. Nevertheless, it was because of him that the northern sky
military camp was able to temporarily hold off the danger.
